Grant ant IGBC to Partner for a more Sustainable Built Environment

Grant has recently announced a new partnership with the Irish Green Building Council (IGBC), which will see one of the leading home heating solutions companies supporting the IGBC in accelerating the carbonisation of residential heating.

Pat Barry CEO at the Irish Green Building Council said, “Decarbonising our homes is critical to reach carbon neutrality. As it currently stands, the residential sector accounts for about one quarter of the energy used in Ireland. Grant is the first heating company to join our organisation as a partner member and we are looking forward to working with them to support the decarbonisation of our built environment.”

Speaking about the partnership Stephen Grant, Founder of Grant, added, “We are delighted to join the Irish Green Building Council, bringing over four decades of knowledge, innovation and expertise in the heating industry. We are committed to the decarbonisation of residential heating and will continue to focus on helping homeowners throughout Ireland reduce their carbon footprint and future-proof their homes.”

The Government Climate Action plan requires Ireland to install 600,000 heat pumps by 2030. To make the shift to heat pump technology, Grant is ramping up education of installers, architects, engineers and local authorities, offering free CPDs.

Niall Fay, Director at Grant commented, “We look forward to working together with the Irish Green Building Council and fellow members, to educate homeowners and also installers, architects, engineers and local authorities alike, on how to make the shift to renewable. Heat pump technology can deliver a fully decarbonised, resource efficient home heating system, whilst also allowing long term cost saving and increased comfort.”

Further demonstrating its commitment to education, Grant has recently launched a new Knowledge Hub section on its website. Dedicated to giving homeowners easy access to information and advice to help them make informed decisions when selecting heating technologies to best suit their needs, the Knowledge Hub emphasises the importance of making sustainable home heating choices. #
